**Reviewed Date:** May 30, 2019

**What do you like best about DocuShare?**

The people here who need to store extraordinary amounts of paper documents like the software.

Being forced to use an extremely unhelpful reseller doesn't  make any sense.    As a customer, if I tell Xerox that a reseller is not working out, why can't Xerox allow us access to a different reseller??

Make sure you can work with your reseller

Licensing costs and how it is licensed.  The search seems to return more items than what we want.  It should be more specific and less like google.

Multiple copies of the same document.  Better version control.

  ### 21. Docushare is an awesome tool for the document sharing

**Reviewed Date:** August 22, 2018

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Research | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2017

Easy to navigate, the menus are really easy to find and understand.  I am not a regular user and did not get trained "how to", but I have been able to manage the system.

I am not a regular user, so I really can't comment on this.  But as I get to use it more as system admin, I find how it is used.

**What problems is DocuShare solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Records management and training records.  They are all in one location, even though it is not the "Official records" we are still able to control and mange the records for the entire group functions.

**Official Response from Lisa Walsh:**

> Location, location, location!  Thanks for sharing that DocuShare has enabled you to keep your records in one location and made it easy to navigate, manage and control them all.

  ### 26. Impressive growth in recent times

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 21, 2018

**What do you like best about DocuShare?**

I'm glad to witness Docushare setting up new benchmarks for the industry.
Many of the projects that I've worked with has Docushare as the system in place for document management!

**What do you dislike about DocuShare?**

It would be great if we can integrate custom solutions under the umbrella of docushare. From what I've been hearing, the api is very rrstrictive in terms of what sort of customizations it can allow. That is,  thinking of it more of a technology rather than a just a product.

**What problems is DocuShare solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Due to a global economy in the technology age, the increase in the employee growth in varied geographical locations means that we have to be more efficient and smart in how we manage their documents and associated metadata. A lot of docushare's customers fmfi d this to be very true.

**Official Response from Lisa Walsh:**

> Thanks for helping us reach those benchmarks. To keep it going, I've passed on your input regarding integrating custom solutions.  

If you're not already using Xerox DocuShare Flex, look into it - www.docushare.com/about/flex.  It's great for global business and on-the-go employees.
 

  ### 27. Document Management

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Research | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 25, 2018

**What do you like best about DocuShare?**

Team collaboration, document storage, task management and workflow management.

Deleting a document or file is not easy. I wish they could be deleted by simply clicking delete.

**Recommendations to others considering DocuShare:**

It is a heat tool for document management and ease of retrieval. Also great for collaboration .

**What problems is DocuShare solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Manage Workflow between departments and work groups

  ### 28. Xerox DocuShare Review

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ted L. | ERP Team Lead, Plastics, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 13, 2017

**What do you like best about DocuShare?**

Xerox's DocuShare support team has been outstanding. We've used them to build us custom workflow routings, reducing the amount of time it takes the users to create the routings as opposed to creating the workflows from scratch using the native ad-hoc routings. Steps in the custom routings are based on groups tied to Active Directory so the code does not need to be updated as people come and go from positions in the company.

**What do you dislike about DocuShare?**

The database structure is difficult to try to understand. This makes trying to build reports against the system cumbersome, though Xerox will build queries into the system as a paid customization.

**Recommendations to others considering DocuShare:**

DocuShare has been a great product for us for over a decade. In our environment, it has been very 'hands-off' administratively over the years. As would be the case for document control in most if not all manufacturing companies, the drivers and owners of the system are the quality department. They have far more work than the IS department, but that's based upon the work of managing the content - the burden of QA would be there in any document control system.

**What problems is DocuShare solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As you would imagine - DocuShare is our document control system. It allows us to easily prove that we indeed do have that control during audits. We can set the auditing to be extremely verbose, giving the ability to provide traceability on any document or user.

  ### 29. Docushare Review

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Todd T. | IT Admin, Information Technology and Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 20, 2017

**What do you like best about DocuShare?**

The uptime for the product is very good. Very seldom do we have to reboot the in-house DocuShare server. We also like DocuShare Drive client on the workstation. Our users like the ability to edit files and their location on the fly instead of signing into the GUI 

**What do you dislike about DocuShare?**

The necessity to have a SmartDocTravel server in order to be the go between the Xerox MFP and the DocuShare server. Should be able to do all of this with one server. Maybe the new version has this capability but I just don't know at this time.

**Recommendations to others considering DocuShare:**

If you are thinking about purchasing DocuShare I would compare it to other products such as Toshiba's Docuware. We recently had a demonstration and I have to say it has more functions like the Print directly to the Toshiba printer which in turn will file it electronically without ever having to scan the document.

**What problems is DocuShare solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Electronic Document Storage. Easy to drill down and find archive documents via the text search function. 

  ### 30. I find DocuShare easy to use.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 23, 2018

**What do you like best about DocuShare?**

What I like the best about DocuShare is the simple folder structure. This helps with the organization of documents.

**What do you dislike about DocuShare?**

When using the Desktop client on Windows you are not able to include any of the custom metadata properties defined for a folder or document type.

**Recommendations to others considering DocuShare:**

Before implementing DocuShare ensure that you have completed a thorough fit-gap excercise and sent multiple staff memmbers on training.

**What problems is DocuShare solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We have been able to store invoices and receipts via OCR scanning with DocuShare. This has minimized the need for physical storage of paper documents. 

**Official Response from Lisa Walsh:**

> Hello.  Thank you for your review.  We hope you and your team have successfully finished training and realized even more ways besides scanning that DocuShare helps save on storage, time and money.

  ### 31. Long time user, customer, and value-added reseller/integrator

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Doug C. | President & Consultant, Computer Software, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2017

**What do you like best about DocuShare?**

DocuShare is easy to figure out and use, even for the advanced features.  It's easy to integrate with other applications and operations.  We use the drag-n-drop interface, DocuShare Drive, and content intake quite a lot.  I use the Email Agent just about every day to send and file documents at the same time.  The search features are excellent.

**What do you dislike about DocuShare?**

I've been wanting a sync program to work between my PC and DocuShare, like the simple file sharing offerings have.  

**Recommendations to others considering DocuShare:**

Talk to someone who uses or has implemented DocuShare in the manner you intend to.  Skim through the documentation and datasheets for the add-ons.

**What problems is DocuShare solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We keep all our internal documentation and account information here and use it to a limited degree to provide information about our products and services for public access.

  ### 32. Xerox does it all

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Amy F. | Commercial Insurance CSR, Insurance, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 18, 2018

**What do you like best about DocuShare?**

I like that I can use this to do just about anything that I need in my line of work.  I can scan and shrink or enlarge items, collate and hole punch, staple large booklets, I can't think of anything this doesn't do for me.  It's easy to troubleshoot as well because the xerox machine in itself is pretty complicated.  It also fits well with the Applied system we use and lets our office be completely paperless as far as customer files go.

**What do you dislike about DocuShare?**

The machines require quite a bit of maintenance and when one is down, our office really misses it.  I love all that they can do, but with the expanded technology, it means they aren't easy for us to fix and we have to call up our maintenance plan quite often.
